 Fusion Metadata Registry provides a web service for '''deleting''' structural metadata.
-Deletion is performed by submitting a structure message as if importing the content to the Registry, but instead using the HTTP <code>DELETE</code> verb. The structure message can be in any supported structure format, with the information supplied as a file, zip file, or in the HTTP body.
